dbane883 Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Sounds like the keyless works needs to be reassembled. And/or you need a new stem. I would not play around with the time unless you or someone else takes it apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delboy Posted January 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 Which stem part number would I need from cousins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeyB Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 As dbane said, it's likely the keyless works which is what holds the stem in position and in the watch. If the stem was broken in the watch it would still take the same repair/resetting of the keyless works but with a new stem.Broken stems happen, but resetting the keyless works is far more common. There are tutorials on this site for resetting the keyless works. After spending $25usd at the watchmaker a few times I tried it. It was the first movement repair I ever did and using th step by step it wasn't hard at all. Take a pic of your stem and your movement and post it so we can see what movement you have and what your problem might be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy333 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 If you have the tools/skill to remove the movement from the case & then to remove the hands/dial from the movement, you should be able to see the problem within the keyless works (the set of gears/wheels driven by the stem).

kbh Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Tough to answer how to fix a movement when you don't even specify which movement you have. 21j or eta/clone? If 21j, the movement is only about $35. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
